In my case it was the wrong adapter between my disk and cable. (It was an 80<=>68-pin converter thingy.) Replacing it with the right one solved the problem. HTH, --Pete On Sun, Apr 21, 2002 at 05:54:05PM -0400, Robert Webb wrote: > Hi all, > > I have a Symbios SCSI controller built onto my M

hi ya robert even if the disks suppose to support 40/80/160MB per sec transfers.. you seldom get close to those ratings...and sustain that transfer speed - check if you have dma mode turned on in your bios and scsi controllers - to do more tweeking... - check the length of the cables .
